20x20 and KPMG's flagship finale takes place this week

There are just 24 hours to go until 20x20 and KPMG present ‘What’s Next for Women in Sport? #ThinkItAskIt’ – the virtual wrap-up event of 20x20 which will take place at midday tomorrow (Wednesday, October 21).

The event will celebrate 20x20 as it draws to a close, having been one of the most successful and transformative movements in women’s sport in recent years.

The line-up for the event includes a who’s who of national and international stars, including tennis icon Martina Navratilova as keynote speaker, along with insights from Sonia O’Sullivan, Brian O’Driscoll, Casey Stoney, Rachael Blackmore, Niamh McCarthy, Leona Maguire, Lady Mary Peters, Mick Bohan and Graham Shaw.

The event follows on from the launch of #ThinkItAskIt in September, which was a nationwide call to arms to help provoke permanent change for women’s sport in Ireland and urged the public and all stakeholders involved in sport to ask key questions not only of themselves, but of society at large.

The aim of the event this week is to propel the #ThinkItAskIt conversation forward even further and provoke more debate to bring about progress for women in sport, and to inspire the public and other stakeholders to act and to choose the future they want for women’s sport in Ireland.

RTÉ’s Jacqui Hurley will MC the event, which will also feature insights from Cliona O’Leary (RTÉ), Ger Gilroy (Off The Ball) and Mary O’Connor (Federation of Irish Sport), who will be on hand to look ahead to the future of women in sport in Ireland, while founder of the 20x20 movement, Sarah Colgan, will present the results of the impact of the campaign.
